Rakdos

This is a Rakdos aristocrats/reanimator-leaning Commander deck built around K’rrik, Son of Yawgmoth. Even though it’s black-red, the deck is heavily black-focused and uses K’rrik to turn life into mana, letting it deploy spells quickly and chain value plays.

Its main game plan is to sacrifice creatures for value, recur them, and drain opponents out. Cards like Blood Artist, Gray Merchant of Asphodel, Fleshbag Marauder, Merciless Executioner, Pawn of Ulamog, Jadar, Mogg War Marshal, and Sling-Gang Lieutenant create strong aristocrats synergies, while Gravecrawler, Doomed Necromancer, and Chainer, Nightmare Adept help keep creatures coming back. Skullclamp turns expendable bodies into cards, and Goblin Matron can tutor up key goblin pieces.

The deck usually wins by incremental life drain and sacrifice loops, grinding the table down with repeated death triggers and ETB effects, then finishing with a big Gray Merchant of Asphodel or a wide
